Scope: The RMMS will act as an umbrella strategy for country offices. It is fully aligned to the corporate RMMS and the RMMS for RAF. The duration is for the remainder of the Medium Term Plan (2010-2013), essentially the forthcoming Programme of Work and Budget (2012-13). Target: (+/-10%) USD 8 million mobilized in 2012/13 through voluntary contributions

Addis location for dialogue with Intl Development Partners • To advocate FAO’s comparative advantage, through a vibrant communication campaign to support resource mobilization; • E.g. Communication note for SRC to use in consultative meeting with partners • To create a new culture for resource mobilization Organization-wide, strengthening coordination and enhancing capacities and, • E.g. ECP workshop • E.g. SFE RMS and support to country offices • To effectively manage and report on resources and results at all levels, to Governing Bodies and external partners • E.g.

  11. FAO’s RENEWED COMMITMENT TO A HUNGER FREE HORN OF AFRICA • The FAO is committed to supporting national and regional initiatives in the HoA by strengthening and intensifying collaboration and support to ongoing activities and priorities in the subregion. • It is a renewed commitment to a hunger-free HoA through enhanced partnerships, increased agricultural investment, support to scaling up of good agricultural practices and political commitment at the highest level. • FAO’s renewed commitment to the HoA is not a new programme or initiative, but a means to exploring opportunities to deliver better and more effective support to its partners, including governments, RECs, etc. In other words, it is a commitment to be a better partner. • The approach is based on a “country-led, subregionally coordinated and headquarters/Regional Office for Africa supported” approach. At regional and headquarter levels, task forces from all technical departments are working together to support the subregional and country offices.

  12. Four Strategic Thrusts • FAO’s renewed commitment in the HoA consists of the following four strategic thrusts: • governments, peoples and development partners commit to a • hunger-free HoA; • (ii) policies and institutions support the realization of a hunger-free HoA; • (iii) increased investments in agriculture and food security promote prosperity and peace; • (iv) successful programmes and innovations are scaled up for rapid impact.
